[Public-list] Anchors

[Randy Katz]

I have a 23# Delta which has worked fine almost always.  Once I substituted
a 20-25# danforth in stronger S winds in Nanaimo, BC. when the Delta was
dragging. 

A boat length of heavy chain seems a reasonable amount, if not a minimum.

I use 1/2 " nylon rode, which works fine, though I do worry about it on
occasion-- then I check it often for fraying at the anchor roller.  A towel
underneath the line there helps.

If I were doing it again I'd buy the next heavier nylon rode.

Hope this helps--
